I’ve been doing this kind of thing for a year now. My friend asked me to do live sound for his event. They only had an analogue mixer, but I decided to bring my audio interface and laptop just in case. I ended up plugging vocal mics directly into my audio interface and used Ableton to host plugins to process the vocals and sent that directly out of my interface into the analogue mixer. It worked out well. Since then I’ve mainly just used my RME interface with its Totalmix mixer or Ableton to process vocals and instruments and to play backing tracks live and use an iPad to control the mix wirelessly. It’s amazing that a good audio interface or daw can be setup as a digital mixer or in your case as a processor to add features not found on an analogue mixer.
Yeah I was thinking about getting one myself to try out on a channel but I'm still thinking about the behringer x32 producer as well I'm still kind of up in the air.
Yeah I was going to have it clean but I decided against it. I had the behringer board so I just decided to keep using the behringer board. Now I'm not using either one of them I'm actually mixing inside the box. But from time to time I do connect my behringer board just for certain things. I had a can of electronic cleaner spray cleaner that I got from work and did some of the faders myself but after a couple of days they went bad again so I just decided it wasn't and I only paid $400 for the board and I decided the cost was going to be more than what I paid for the board. As far as my ADATs are concerned I'm not doing any recording on them even though I just got them repaired I'm basically just using them for the converters and I'm running the channels out of the daw through the adat's into my mixing console when I do use them. Plus the tapes are extremely expensive.
Thanks for the input. Yes the tapes are crazy expensive so I most likely will steer away from the ADAT format . But you know that new Tascam Studio Bridge Model series 24 channel recorder is what I think I'm gonna end up buying unless it's crazy expensive, I have no idea what the price will be be once they are in stock.
